Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes

Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes are a regular dish for us in the summer time. Load them up with your choice of toppings and toss them on the grill.

Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes

These delicious Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes are perfect for when you are grilling out on the barbecue. They make the perfect side to any meat you’re grilling. We love them with anything from chicken to burgers, steaks to fish. I love how you can customize each foil pack based on your own personal preferences. Toss all the potatoes with the ranch mixture then divide the potatoes out onto individual foil pieces and top them the way we want them. Our kids love making their own potatoes and adults love them too, so try these for your next cook out and prepare to be amazed!

Cooking Methods for Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes

Ranch Potatoes can be cooked a number of ways. If you’re out camping, they make a terrific tin foil dinner. All you have to do is prepare ahead of time and chill in a cooler until ready to cook. Then, just throw them in the fire pit. To check the readiness, unfold some of the foil and pierce a potato with a fork to see if it is tender.

We make these Ranch Potatoes most often on the gas grill during the summertime, but you can easily cook them in the oven during the winter months. Bake them at 425 degrees for about 30 to 45 minutes but the time will vary depending on how big your potato pieces are. Again, check for potatoes to be fork tender before taking them out of the oven.

Turn these Ranch Potato packs into a full meal by adding raw chicken to the potatoes. Make sure to cut the chicken into bite size pieces so it cooks thoroughly. Boneless, skinless chicken thighs taste scrumptious in this recipe, but any kind of chicken will work just fine. Just make sure the temperature of the chicken is about 165 degrees so you know it’s done.

Top these Grilled Foil Ranch Potatoes with bacon, ham, sausage, onions, peppers, broccoli, any kind of cheese, or just leave them plain with the ranch mixture.

First, I’ve tried quite a few of your recipes and really enjoyed them.
That being said, please don’t post recipes without saying how many servings. Very frustrating. In the particular recipe above you don’t even say how many potatoes! You may be experienced cooks but there are those of us who aren’t. Need all the help I can get.
Thank you for hearing out my rant. I will continue to try more of your recipes.
